It's the Zotac 750 ti, and proper power supply yes, it has a Seasonic S12 II Bronze 520W with the proper cables plugged into it.
Could it be the board it's self broken in that area and only allow older cards to run in it?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

No it should run a 750ti , no problem.

Did you try a CMOS clear?

I did pull it out for like 20 seconds and reinstalled it, but still nothing.

There's no reason unless , the slot is possibly bad , it should run in that PCIE slot.

Does the card appear to be getting power?

Ive run a 2400 proin the slot , not matching up to the 750 ti. Is there anyway to test if it's bad?

Only if you had another system , what are your full specs and make and model of card and PSU.

No reason it shouldn't power that card.

Only way to know would be to test the GPU in another system

If you would half to guess do you think it is the gpu slot on the motherboard is no good for more powerfulcards ? or the voltage is just not there because its going bad? And ive run it in another system with a 275 watt psu it's a dell xps 420 I ran it in and it was all fine. it just fails the post test in my new pc for some reason. I should also add I took that same psu out and pluged it in my new system and it still failed it.

If it runs in the other system , most likely a board issue.

I thank you very much for the help, and the time you took to look back at the questions I asked you, many thanks. And one last thing what brand boards seem to be of good quality in your opinion.

I prefer ASUS and Gigabyte , Asrock is decent.
